FUEL COST REDUCES FOR MARCH 2026
Zambia’s Energy Regulation Board has officially announced a reduction in fuel costs for several key petroleum products, including petrol, diesel, and kerosene . These revised prices, which also affect aviation fuel , are scheduled to take effect immediately and will remain stable through the end of March . Board Chairperson James Banda noted that this downward adjustment is primarily a result of the Kwacha’s strengthening performance against the American dollar. By aligning domestic energy rates with favorable exchange rates , the government aims to provide economic relief to consumers and businesses. This policy shift reflects the direct impact of currency stabilization on the nation’s essential commodity pricing.
